i finally cured my rasp problem, i got a hushpower resonator. i had tried aero, megan, stock and no luck but now you know.

 

I wondered if the Flowmasters would work or not,but they are so dang spendy to take the chance,glad to hear they work,what size did you install.

 

A muffler bearing will solve all your problems...

 

2 1/4 inch, but they do have other sizes.

 

So jsut one 12" did the trick,if so that is awsome as they will last a long long time too,used them on my Camero when the tickets for exhaust got too much to bear anymore and they took almost all the high end noise out completely.

 

Is there a universal model or a specific one? Did you get it installed before or after the cat?

 

Hey what are the specs of your exhaust, and how big is the resonator, i am thinking of getting one for my future setup, i want to run the hks hi-power. do you have a header? can you post up a video for us?

 

I'll give props to the hushpower also. Just got it put in with our MMW Header and HKS hi power. The midpipe only had a 16" generic resonator to being with, but adding the 12" hushpower definitely made a big difference. Rasp is gone, but the exhaust is still loud and deep. So I would recommend running a more lengthy resonator setup if you are trying to make it quieter, but the 12" definitely took away all the rasp. I think they make a 16 or 18" hushpower one, now that will be highly effective.

Just a side note, the axle-back is really the heart of how the tone comes out. Without the hushpower in this same setup; the Tanabe Medallion Touring kept our exhaust sounding near stock.

 

Hooray for Hushpower. I'm running one on my 1gen xB, the 18" mounted mid-body and no resonator, 2 1/4". No rasp ever, though it will drone at 3k RPM. I do run a silencer for long trips, but for around town it's great, no bumblebee or fart-can sound in it.

Also, this was with a Strup stainless header. Now that the turbo is on, the drone is gone, though the low end is also quiter. So, if you want to quiet your exhaust, get a turbo.

 

Am i just getting one of their mufflers and using as a resonator?

 

The huspowerII is in and I could not be happier with the results. There is little to no drone and the car pulls just as hard as before with out attracting the wrong attention from the five0. I would think it would help with the rasp as well.
